[Samba] required entries in ldap for samba...

[Ken Kleiner]

Okay.

So - a posix entry for root/uid=0/gid=0 in ldap.  Can it have a null
userPassword entry and a valid lm/nt password entry?  I assume that is best.

After I create the ldan entry, do I need to do :  

	smbpasswd -a root 

Thanks....
